    I honestly dont know what the channels are like over there. I know for the old WWF PPV's that were shown in England I had to Youtube them and the channel was called FOX Sports I believe maybe they will have something. You should be able to find most of the fights you want on the internet though.

    I don't think HBO rebroadcasts stuff unless they are doing it to promote a fight, in which case it appears on HBO anyway.
    I know when ESPN classics shows the old fights, they re-dub the commentary with two new guys pretending to have been watching the fight live. I kind of hate it because they try to say stuff to make themselves seem insightful, but they only can do this because they already knew the outcomes of the fight when they recorded the new commentary.
